UNITED STATES,

GAMBED'ARAMIAN, or PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA. l l 5"" TOY WHISTLE.

Appncati'o'n filed January 181923. serial N. 613,382.

To all whom t may concern:

Be it known that I, GARABED ARAMIAN, a

citizen of Turkey, having declared my intention to become a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Philadelphia, in the county of Philadelphia and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Toy Whistles, ct which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in toy whistles 'wherein the main body portion thereof is constructed in simulation of a vase-or pitcher having a laterally directed spout to which a mouth piece is attached. .k

The primary object oi the invention is to provide a toy whistle of the type above described wherein the main body portion and spout are adapted to contain'fluid, such as water to produce a warbling eilect upon blowing through the mouth piece and spout.

si further object of the invention isv to provide a ll-shaped notch in the outer end'of the upper wall of the spout, the area of which may be varied by adjusting the mouth piece tor changing the pitch or tone of the whistle.

lilith the above general objects in view and others that will appear as the nature of the invention is better understood, the same consists orp the noval form, combination and arrangement of parts hereinafter more fully described, shown in the accompanying draw ing and claimed.

In the drawing, wherein like reference characters designate corresponding parte throughout the several views,

Figure l is a side elevational view, partly broken away and shown in section of a toy whistle constructed in accordance with the present invention, the same being in the general form oi'l avase or pitcher having a side spout and mouth piece, f

Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view of the toy whistle showing water therein to produce a warbling effect, f'

Figure 3 is a top plan view showing'the V-shaped notch in the uppery side of the spout with the mouth piece illustrated by dotted lines in a shifted position, and

Figure 4 is a mouth piece. y j y Referring'mo're inV detail to the accom-v panying drawing, there is illustrated a toy whistle constructed in theform of a vase or pitcher embodying a body l having a spaced portion-2 and an outwardly Haring iillingupper end 3. A lifting handle 4 is carried by the' neck portion of the body.

A side spout 5 projects laterally or' the neck portion of the body diametrically opposite the handle 4 as illustrated, the spout 5 being rectangular incross-section and open at its outer end with the outer end of the upper wall oit the'spout- 4provided with a Vshaped notch 6 as ,clearly shown in Fig. 3.

A. mouth piece 7 of the form best illustrated in Fig. 4f carries a depending flange 8 upon one end thereof, the flanged end of the mouth piece 7 being inserted in the open outer end of the spout 5 as shown in Fig. 2, and if desired may be permanently mounted as by soldering or otherwise. It is also intended that the mouth piece 7 be adjustable in the outer end oi' the spout 5 as shown in Fig. 3, such 'adjustability varying the area of the V-shaped notch 6 for changing the pitch ory tone of the whistle. Fluid, such as water, indicated by thev reference numeral 9 in Fig. 2 is placed in the body 1 of the whistle, the upper level of which is in the neck portion of the body and also in the perspective View of the laterally positioned .spout 5 as shown iny Fig. 2.

The whistle is operated in the usual manner by placing the mouth piece 7 in the `mouth of the user who blows therethrough and the presence of water in the body and spout will cause a warbling effect similar to the songs of certa-in birds. The pitch or tone ci the whistle may be varied by adjusting the mouthpiece 7 in the spout 5 for varying the size of the V-shaped notch or opening 6 as shown in Fig. 3. The device is also serviceable as a receptacle for hold-V ing cut flowers, and may further be used as a pitcher for containing and pouring fluid,

or as an ornamental vase.

While there 1s herein shown and descrlbed the preferred embodiment of the present invention, it is nevertheless to be understood that minor changes may be made therein Without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as claimed.

What is claimed as new is: Y

In a toy whistle; a body receptacle adapted to contain fluid, a spout proj eoting from one side thereof, a mouth piece slidably mounted in the outerxend of the spout, the upper W'all 10 of the mouth piece having a V-shaped notch at the outer end thereof, the area of which is Varied by the mouth p-ieee, and Y2L depending flange carried by the inner end of the mouth piece engaging the nozzle.

In testimony whereof I aix my signature.

GARABED ARAMIAN.
